That's all I can think of, for now.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">Thanks for watching, on behalf of Baby Rayden. :p</span>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7946911786140885989.post-37846016530605374142015-10-21T14:00:00.000+08:002015-10-21T14:00:09.666+08:00The New Mum's Fashion Post <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="color: red;">So since having Rayden, my wardrobe sort of went through a huge overhaul. Gone were nice one-piece dresses which I love for their convenience and loveliness, enter top and bottoms, which I used to hate. I mean, I was damn lazy to wake up earlier to match one top with another bottom!</span></div>
<br />
Well now I have no choice since there is a need to pump milk at work. Also heels are exclusively for work days as going out with Rayden in a pair of heels is just digging your own grave (hence I appreciate my time wearing heels a lot now)... And I've never worn any make-up since then cos god knows when Rayden is going to touch my face and next thing is to put his hand into his mouth? So in certain photos here I really look dead tired and pale... LOL. Oh well, who says mum is an easy occupation anyway?<br />

Basically a lot of my coordinates have forced me to dig into my old clothes which I have left aside earlier. This pair of comfy pants for instance is probably almost 10 years old - one of my cheap buys back in Perth.<br />

I must admit peplum tops are not very breast-pumping friendly also but screw it la, as long it's nice... :p<br />
<br />
I think new mums like me have the same issue with shopping for clothes because we won't know how small are we going to shrink back into, both boobs area and tummy area. In my case, my tummy area is pretty much gone although I think I need to get back into my usual work-out routine to tone it back (ahhhh... Where got time wor???) but my boobs are definitely not going anywhere and I'm not sure when I stop breastfeeding will it shrink? LOL!<br />
<br />
Which is why, in my calculative aunty-mode on, I love shopping at <i>Zalora</i> because if you can't fit into the clothes (and shoes) you can always return/exhange them for free! It's like the best option for new mums out there! Solve all the problems!!!<br />

Hey guys, my apologies for not updating much. Work is getting busier and there is zero chance of me blogging at home now with a baby around so yah... Life as a working mum that is!</div>

While I'm getting used to being a mum, I'm slowly catching up on my cafe-hopping activities so early last month we checked into <i>Flingstones Cafe</i>, a non-halal cafe located just opposite Taylor's College in SS15, Subang.<br />

The cafe looks not less like any hipster cafes in town, very rugged with some vintagy settings.<br />
What's more interesting is their very cool names for their food, drinks and cakes! So freaking cute! The menu is quite full-on with some very creative use of pork in their dishes. So we picked our choices!<br />

<span style="color: red;">Let's start with the very hearty Green Pea Soup, very light but got its flavour up with some awesome bacon bits - super yummy! The Chu Yao Char Angel Hair (so literal lol) was pretty nice although I think it would taste nicer with a thicker type of pasta and a little more liquid but the use of the thick Chu Yao Cha and bacon bits win big time for the dish. Big love for the B.E.L.T too - nicely fried bacon plus a nice fried egg and the yummy side salad, so satisfying!</span> Their Big Bang Breakfast (love that name though) was quite decent, although not fantastic. Personally think the scrambled egg can be better.</div>

<i>Huckleberry Food & Fare</i> for instance, is one of the most talk-about bakery cafes recently. You can see the owner(s) spent quite a lot on making sure the place looks damn attractive. <span style="color: red;">From the outside, it's quite normal white and glass, but be prepared to be amazed by the interior of the place! Fuhhh... So freaking grand, almost like you have arrived in a bakery in Paris! For all the money and effort spent aesthetically, I give them a BIG thumb-up!</span><br />

I had the Duck Bacon and Egg Pasta, which is quite interesting cos there you have a poached egg with your pasta. I absolutely love the duck bacon - so tender and flavourful. But the pasta turned out to be a little too bland to my liking I had to ask for black pepper to go with it. What I like about Nellie's Old Fashion Burger was the side salad which I kinda helped her to finish LOL. The burger itself was very ordinary with the patty being too dry to my liking but taste wise it was better than the pasta dish.<br />

<span style="color: red;">As for the Black Forest that we tried, it was pretty good! Not too sweet, especially with the fresh cherries that are a bit sourish, and I like how different the Black Forest looks like compared to the ones you normally see elsewhere. I later tried their apple tart which i really love too because of its thin crust, not-too-sweet apple with nice cinnamon scent all over. </span><br />

We weren't in a mood for coffee so both had hot and cold chocolate which were mediocre (<i>Croisserie </i>few doors down serves much better chocolate, trust me, one of the best). But I did try their coffee later on which I find them not too bad at all.<br />

We spent around RM85 for that lunch meal, which was very pricey but I guess for cafes standards, it's quite normal nowadays. But does the place deserves the fuss that is going on about them? For the pastries, cakes and coffee yes, for their service yes, for their fancy design yes but for the hot food nah...<br />

It was a beautiful Saturday when I left baby Rayden at home with Deardo to take care of alone, while I sneaked out for a catch-up lunch with my ex-colleagues/friends at <i>Fat Spoon</i>. I've walked past the restaurant many times but never had a chance to try their food until then! And Nyonya food? Anytime for me man! </div>

Big love for the old-school decor - so rugged, so detailed yet so random! And the entire ambiance is so good it feels really comfy to dine in the restaurant!<br />

A glance at their menu tells you they sell Nyonya food with a twist, which is what I like in any food (and other stuff too I guess) so I said, bring it on, bring all the food and let me try them!<br />

Because there were 7 of us, we ordered some appetizers to shared too. The Pumpkin Fritters were really awesome - tasted really fresh and crunchy, definitely something really unique too. The Prawn Fritters were not bad, especially when they aren't stingy on the amount of prawns at all! We also tried the Chicken & Basil Wrap which tasted ordinary but can turned extraordinary with the dipping sauce that comes with it, The lemongrass really brings out the flavour of that special-tasting sauce!<br />

I didn't try all other dishes that the gang ordered, but generally, everyone was quite happy with their meal. The Moo Moo Rice Bowl that I had was quite interesting - mixture of basil and some sweet gravy in the beef makes it a very hearty bowl of meal, plus a bowl of ABC soup as a side, I feel very much at home yo! Flavour wise though, I really like the Ulam Fried Rice that I tried - tasted really nice with the fragrance from all the spices used in it! So good!<br />
What I certainly love about their food is the twists they added into their dishes. For instance, Tamarind Prawn (or Assam Prawn) with Pasta? That's really creative!<br />

<span style="color: red;">We of course, had two portions of one of their signature dish - Cempedak Spring Rolls as dessert and that's DA BOMB, hands down! The Cempedak Paste was made so yummy and naturally sweet (and not too sweet) and goes so freaking well with the vanilla ice-cream that comes with it! I had a serious jaw-dropping moment the second I had the first bite. My honest advice here - You can skip everything, but not this Cempedak Spring Rolls!!!</span><br />

Seven main dishes, three appetizers, two desserts and a few drinks cost us RM224.55, which was actually very reasonable! Most of their main dishes are around RM13-RM18, which is quite economical I shall say. So another plus point and another reason for a second (and third and fourth and so on,,,) visit! *wink~*<br />

So one fine day when Deardo had an appointment nearby, we finally paid the very small and humble restaurant a visit. Owned and managed by a Japanese couple (or so I heard), the restaurant is definitely small with a capacity of probably just about 10 tables.<br />

The menu is a two-pager and it really does say a lot about it being run buy Japanese cos they are not easy to understand, even for someone like me, who had some basic knowledge in Japanese language. Anyway, all you need to remember (and I've double-checked with them) is that they only sell seafood and not other meats, with most of them I read are air-flown all the way from Japan. You can even choose from their chiller some fresh or frozen seafood to bring home! </div>

<span style="color: red;">First up, the much-talkabout Mentai Rice was pretty awesome. Of course it was just a bigger version of a Tamago Mentai Sushi but I love it nonetheless! We had the Salt Grilled Saba (something that Deardo always order at any regular Japanese restaurants) and the Salt Grilled Sanma, both super juicy, fresh and delicious, even Deardo who is very particular with fishes approved! :) </span>We also tried their signature Homemade Air Dry Saba which was something like our salted fish with still fresh meat instead of it being dried hard. It was fresh but a little too salty to my liking.<br />

I'm not normally a fan Miso Soup but I've read about the Miso Soup here being different so I tried. It is indeed very interesting - you could taste fish in the soup with some fish pieces inside, a proof that it is not any other random Miso Soup, but Miso Soup that is made of real seafood broth. So another thumb-up for the soup!<br />

With a bowl of rice (RM3.50) and a refillable green tea (RM2), the quick lunch (I say quick cos the service is quite fast and there are already whole load of people standing outside the restaurant waiting for tables) cost us RM64.50, which is not too bad for a seafood meal, especially since it was a very satisfying one! <span style="color: red;">Definitely going back for more - I'm aiming some clams and cod fish next yo! Who's with me?</span><br />

I was so eager to start cooking and eating normal food again after the one-month confinement month. MIL bought us a lot of stuff too so I had to cook anyway to free some space for my breast milk in the freezer so here are some of my cooking that I managed to do while taking care of the little one at the same time! </div>

Simple lunch for one: 10-grain rice porridge with minced pork, carrot and potato with a tablespoon of Bovril, served with some boiled broccoli and cherry tomatoes.<br />
Story behind this lunch? Finished in 2 hours while taking care of a attention-seeking baby. FML. :p<br />

And then Mamo came to visit Rayden and got the two sisters over for dinner where Mamo took care of Rayden while I cooked up this beautiful table of dinner! Mamo contributed the yummy Fu Chok Soup and Peanuts Soup while I made Oven Baked Chicken Drumsticks, Fu Yong Egg, Stir-fry Mixed Vege and Garlic Butter Prawns. :)<br />

Learned this very simple Chicken Rice recipe from Mamo and made it again when she was around (cos I need her to cut the chicken when they are done. LOL). Goes so well with the bowl of gravy that came out from the steamed chicken. Served with a Stir-fry Watercress with Goji Berry yo!<br />

Yes, purposely cooked so much of chicken rice so that I can eat them for lunch when I was alone at home. Same ingredients as #8 you see but different method of cooking. Here I made Steamed Minced Pork with Egg and Sauteed Zucchini with Chili Flakes. Very hearty meal indeed!<br />

Dinner for three (FIL included) in another attempt to clear the freezer! Braised Kampung Chicken with Shiitake Mushrooms and Hard Boiled Egg, Stir-fried Cabbage with Dried Shrimps and surprisingly awesome Curry Prawns and Shark Meat. I said 'surprisingly' cos it was a random curry paste I got from the supermarket and I replaced coconut milk with fresh milk and the dish still turned out to be super awesomely delicious! Yay! More curries in the future! :D<br />
<br />
I<span style="color: red;">'ve come to a realisation that I really prefer cooking over taking care of a crying baby. I mean, who doesn't? LOL. Hasn't been cooking like this since I got back to work though.

During my entire pregnancy (and even know), I've grown to have a sweet tooth, which is a very abnormal Shirlexia. Every now and then, I crave for some sweet stuff after meal, be it dessert or just a sugary drink. </div>
That developed into baking, as witnessed in <a href="http://baobao-no-sekai.blogspot.com/2015/05/home-cooked-for-hungry-mummy-shirlexia.html">my previous entry</a> on some of my baking adventure. I've bake more than I've ever bake in my entire life during my months of pregnancy! LOL!<br />
Anyway, I decided to bake some of the Peanut Butter Oatmeal Cookies, recipe taken from <a href="http://www.bakeorbreak.com/2015/04/peanut-butter-oatmeal-cookies/">here</a> because I love peanut butter and oatmeal are known to be healthy and tummy-filling, just right for the Mummy Shirlexia who was always feeling hungry (now too, actually).<br />
<br />
<span style="color: blue;">So what you need are: </span><br />
<span style="color: lime;">1 & 1/4 cups all-purpose flour</span><br />
<span style="color: lime;">1 teaspoon baking powder</span><br />
<span style="color: lime;">1/2 teaspoon salt</span><br />
<span style="color: lime;">2 cups old-fashioned oats (I use rolled oats)</span><br />
<span style="color: lime;">1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened</span><br />
<span style="color: lime;">3/4 cup firmly packed light brown sugar</span><br />
<span style="color: lime;">1/2 cup creamy or crunchy peanut butter (I used crunchy)</span><br />
<span style="color: lime;">1 large egg (I put two cos our eggs are smaller)</span><br />
<span style="color: lime;">2 teaspoons vanilla extract</span><br />
<span style="color: lime;">(Added some Chia Seed too just cos I have a packet of them sitting in my cabinet)</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: blue;">Here's what you do: </span><br />
<span style="color: lime;">1) Preheat oven to 350° (I lowered this slightly because I make smaller pieces cookies). Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone liners.</span><br />
<span style="color: lime;">2) Whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Stir in the oats. Set aside.</span><br />

I'm not too sure how is the texture like as per the original recipe, but I'm pretty sure it's the American cookies type with a moist centre.<span style="color: red;"> Mine were just a little moist and quite crumbly. Taste wise, it's not too sweet, in fact it tasted a tad salty because of both the little sad added and the peanut butter, which is really delicious (peanut butter lovers like me would agree)! I find the cookies very homey and delicious yet pretty healthy! Goes perfectly-well with some cold fresh milk! Yay!</span><br />

You may or may not know, Mamo was my confinement lady after delivering baby Rayden. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The reasons I made Mamo my confinement lady were 1) we are not use to having a stranger (confinement lady) in our house, 2) I prefer Mamo's cooking and if I doesn't like it I can tell her or if I prefer certain type of food I can tell her too. <span style="color: red;">But asking her to stay in KL, worst, to be confined at home for a month is kinda tough because of the fact that in Taiping she goes out every single day and enjoys her freedom hanging out with friends and running errands on a daily basis. </span></div>

But she came anyway. No <i>Astro</i> to follow her Hokkien shows, no morning walk in lake garden (only morning walk downstairs at my condo), no driving out, no husband (Papo was here for a few days only), no friends (well she made friends here and you can't beat that), no normal I-wanna-nap-I-nap time and she cooks everyday for me, which she doesn't even do at home!</div>
<div>
<br />
<div>
She was only a part-time confinement lady though, meaning by night baby is with Deardo and I so unlike many of you who have the privilege of a confinement lady taking care of your baby at midnight and you could have your sweet sleep, we took care of Rayden ourselves. No regret though, Deardo and I pretty much enjoyed the bonding we have built with him and Deardo is all proud about it that as a father, he has done so much during baby's first month itself. I couldn't agree more, really. Compared to many dads out there who probably take his wife's confinement month as opportunity to leave everything at home to the confinement lady and spend more time outside rather than with his newborn, my husband is in fact, 'a class above'. Ah hemm... *thick skin~*</div>

Anyway, this post isn't about Deardo lah, it's about Mamo and her grandmother-hood. I don't think Mamo regret it either. <span style="color: red;">Grandmother-hood has totally changed her. In stead of being paiseh and refuses to express her true feelings, she shows how much she enjoys playing with Rayden, and told us she will miss him before she left for Taiping after that one month. She was back to KL again after just two weeks time and that's 'whoa' to a lot of people cos if it's the Mamo we know, to ask her to visit us in KL means you better just kill her. LOL.</span></div>

So that's the story of the Ah Ma and her grandson. As for the mother and her daughter, I am truly thankful of her taking care of me for one whole month, although she isn't a professional confinement lady and at times I had to do a lot of stuff myself. I still however, enjoy her company and am very happy the experience changes her. </div>

Last time I never thought much about my parent whenever you talk about migrating or working overseas cos I know at times they also hope for the best for me and that if I can earn more overseas they will be quite happy too. <span style="color: red;">But now with Rayden around, I want to make sure we are in Malaysia so Ah Gong and Ah Ma (even Ye Ye and Ma Ma) can spend some time with him because the truth is they aren't getting any younger and the odds are they might not have too many years left with their grandson. Gosh talking about this always make me emo...</span></div>

After I was officially done with my confinement month, one of the first foods I wanted to eat was some nice Ramen, and I mean those real ones with thick broth, not those with soya sauce soup base okay!</div>
But to beat the weekend jam and the fuss of looking for car park space, we decided to head to <i>1 Mont Kiara</i> (which is by the way, not easy to find parking anymore) to try <i>Menya Kamikaze.</i><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">

A glance at the very simple looking restaurant, you'll find the cashier, the tattooed staff at the kitchen and majority of the tables are Japanese. Those are definitely good sign that the Ramen must authentic and 'Japanese-approved'. And that L-shape sitting area around the kitchen pretty much reminds me of how the Japanese would typically eat their Ramen in Japan!<br />

<span style="color: red;">Before the Ramen came, we had some appetizers. Big love for the deep fried baby prawns, tasted very light but has a very crispy texture. Not a big fan of the oily deep fried gyoza (still prefer pan-fried) but the pork fillings inside were very juicy and yummy! Both very satisfying and affordable too, I must say.</span><br />

Deardo and FIL had the original pork soup Chasu Ramen which has Steamed Pork Belly, Steamed Pork Shoulder, an egg and spring onion. <span style="color: red;">The thick pork broth is of top class, while the thin ramen are very springy and has a nice chewy texture, almost like an al dente pasta. The pork are are all very well done too - tender and flavourful.</span> Being the adventurous one, I tried the Black Garlic Spicy Pork Soup Chasu Ramen, which has the same ingredients, only the difference in terms of flavour. The flavour is a little heavier, very thick with just a hint of spiciness, very nice! Not to mention the portion is also quite huge!<br />

Together with three cups of tea, GST and service charge, we paid RM118.95, which I reckon still considered quite reasonable compared to some other well-known Menyas in town.<br />
Overall, while I don't think the appertizers are too fantastic, the Ramen are definitely above average. Definitely going back again, perhaps to try their famous spicy ramen!<br />

Judging from the period of time I've been absent from this blog, it's quite obvious that Baby Rayden has been keeping me very busy, especially these few weeks after my confinement month where I was left alone at home with the baby. I wasn't even someone who like crying babies so please imagine how depressing and discouraging it is trying to calm a crying baby down. Plus, him crying means you have to let go everything you have on hands, your housework, your work and even your meals. <span style="color: red;">Yeap, it takes me at least 2 hours to finish my lunch nowadays. FML. Ah not to forget, I think it takes about a week to finally post this entry up! :S</span><br />

Anyway, today I would like to <strike>warn</strike> talk about things that a mother has to go through after delivering a baby, which some of you mums-to-be may not know...<br />
<br />
<span style="color: blue;">1) Nope, you can have your usual coffee (or alcohol) fix, just yet</span><br />
Apart from Sashimi, coffee is another thing I really want to have in my daily life again after delivering the baby, until I saw this...<br />

What do you mean by 'although it would be good to avoid totally'? Sounds totally like blackmailing me man! I've heard of many stories about the links between coffee and breastfeeding like your milk production will be cut into half or that your baby who drinks your caffeinated milk would end up not sleeping.<br />

Until the other day I went to see my doctor for a post-natal check-up she told me I can pretty much eat normally now I went like OH SCREW IT and I certainly didn't turn back since then. Of course, I don't have coffee on a daily basis now, just whenever I feel like and trust me, milk production hasn't been any lesser and I don't think it's the reason if Rayden doesn't sleep.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: blue;">2) Nope, you can't wear your sexy and seducing bras, just yet</span><br />
Fine, I've expected that it would take some time to be able to fit into my pretty dresses again, but honestly, I didn't expect my boobs to grow bigger than when they were during pregnancy. So it's absolutely impossible to fit into my old bras (and old dresses too) and I kinda have a feeling they will shrink even slower than my tummy. :S Only bonus here is, nursing bras, although looking quite aunty-ish, are very comfy.<br />

<span style="color: blue;">3) Breastfeeding isn't easy at all</span><br />
Fine, I admit I was damn lazy to do research about BF before this. All I know is BF is good for both baby and mother so I bravely went on with the plan to BF. And then it struck me, the first day we returned home. It was so hard to get Rayden to latch on me and my milk supply was almost zero. Deardo was the first to jump in and questioned me why aren't there milk when I have such big boobies and why his sister who is smaller size has milk and I don't?<span style="color: red;"> Stupid men, I tell you, they don't process their words before the blurt them out. It was so hurtful it made me cry like crazy but that's okay, he apologized after that and milk supply came pretty much right after that first day.</span><br />

And being a breastfeeding mum, you face sore boobs, saggy and ugly boobs, leaking problems, and you have to pump quite on time. So even when baby doesn't wake up in the middle of the night, your almost-exploding boobs will force you to wake up to pump. <span style="color: red;">I always say I look like a zombie cow pumping milk at night...</span><br />

<span style="color: red;">So all these experiences taught me one important thing - never judge. Never judge mums who have decided to just feed their kids formula milk cos hey, BF isn't easy and not everyone has the patience and time for it. Nobody can judge you, not even your husband. BF only if you feel like or you want to. Also, every woman's body is different, so don't ever compare yourself with others. Just do what you think is right for you. *wink~*</span><br />

<span style="color: blue;">4) Traditional CINA confinement could kill you (or your will to give birth again)</span><br />
Now, not that I didn't expect this, just that I found it much tougher than expectations. Let me break this down into few categories:<br />

<b><br /></b>
<b>The loneliness</b><br />
Yes, it was a very lonely journey because you are not allowed to sit where normal people sit (because there's probably a fan nearby) and most of the time you eat alone.<br />
Because the food comprises of nothing but sesame oil, ginger, wine and more ginger - nobody would want to share that with you. So Mamo who cooked for me during my confinement month did join me sometimes but most of other times I had to eat alone because Deardo would go have his fun eating out or with his family. I<span style="color: red;"> was shedding tears at the dining table alone, imagining myself being a bullied kid in high school sitting alone at one corner at the canteen, just like in those American TV shows. BLOODY DEPRESSING...</span><br />

<b>The no-shower rule</b><br />
If Deardo and MIL aren't those very traditional Cina, I won't have this kinda problem. I mean, I'm not judging you who follow all these rules cos I did hear people who really have body problems because they didn't follow the rules. But scientifically and logically thinking, this rule isn't logic at all.<br />
<span style="color: red;">Someone told me before that this rule applies because in China they have cold seasons so it's understandable if you want them to not shower, but this is freaking Malaysia there is no way you can skip shower for so long and I'll be the first one to second that theory!</span><br />

<span style="color: red;">Not being able to shower regularly gives you bad odor, dandruff and hell lot of bacteria and you tell me how is that good for your baby when you are constantly carrying or even breastfeeding him/her? I really couldn't help but wonder if Baby Rayden got his rashes on his face earlier on from me because I wasn't clean at all.</span><br />
<br />
<b>The heaty food</b><br />
To add salt to the no-shower rule, your food are also purposely made to be super heaty. I mean, I got Mamo to come take care of me because I prefer her cooking, and that I can order her to be creative with the food, but still we can't run away from those heaty ingredients, especially GINGER, GINGER and GINGER.<br />

It's already painful enough that I hate ginger in the first place, and to have those meals under a no-fan situation is like asking you to eat some super spicy food in a sauna room. <span style="color: red;">By the end of your meals, you aren't even sure those in your mouth are sweat of soup...</span><br />
<br />
I'm trying to be neutral here but at times I don't agree with all these CINA rules because hey, who doesn't have body pain when you grow old? How sure are you that those pain are because you didn't follow the confinement rules? Ah, when I told Deardo about this he would say so go ahead and don't complain to me when you really have body ache later on! Again, it's black-mailing. <span style="color: red;">Everything after you give birth just sound like whole loads of black-mails. ==|||</span><br />

<span style="color: blue;">5) The pain doesn't just end there</span><br />
So you think pregnancy gives you loads of pains - backache, swollen legs, nausea, etc until you went through labour which was oh-so-painful you feel like it's the pain-est thing in the entire world. Fine, I agree that kinda pain is something really extraordinary but if you think the pain ends there then you are so so wrong.<br />

Apart from the confinement month pain (probably the worst one), you have stitches down there or on the tummy (if you went through c-sec), sore boobs, plus all kinda other pain like becoming domesticated (going out become such a pain), taking care of your kid especially at night and oh yeah, not to forget the many more years of taking care of your kid, making sure that he is always safe and healthy. Phew~ That responsibility!<br />

I find this very funny cos my ex-colleagues Maddy, Lea and I are in this Whatsapps group where Maddy and I who are now mummies always share about our mummy and babies stuff and Lea reminded us about this this acronyms thingy.<br />
BF doesn't mean boyfriend anymore, it's breastfeeding. DL isn't download, but direct latch. So yes, when you become a mother maybe your social conversation will become really weird.<br />

About just a weekend before I popped, 3e, 4e and Uncle Mike were nice enough to ask for a catch-up and since I was supposed to suggest something new, I suggested <i>Swich Cafe </i>for their unique cake selection that I've heard of. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

They have an outlet at Publika and one at Damansara Uptown and we went to the one at Uptown, which is a really small half-a-shop cafe. Honestly, although the decorations are very pretty, it was a disappointment to see such a small space and after trying their food, I must say it's such a waste that the space is not spacious enough to not only cater to more people, but also to look more presentable.<br />

Anyway, since we haven't had our lunch, we gave their new hot food menu a try. They sound pretty interesting I must say.<br />

<span style="color: red;">I had the Pumpkin Curry Chicken Rice which is okay, but Deardo's Cempedak Chicken Rice was pretty unforgettable. Deep fried chicken strips with a layer of cempedak sauce and sesame seed over a bowl of rice - very simple yet so tasty! Best of all, the prices of these hot food ranges only from around RM8.90 to RM11.90, if I'm not mistaken, super affordable!</span><br />
Now to the signature stuff - their cakes!!!<br />

<span style="color: red;">We tried quite a few of their cakes, and I shall say my favourite is the Musang King Durian Mud Pie. Although I prefer the base crust to be a bit thinner, but the combination of the chocolate and durian were enough to make up for the imperfection. Plus, the durian layer really tasted like real durian flesh, I'm freaking serious! So yummy!!! The Cempedak Cake and Cendol Cheese Cake were really good too, I especially love how they are not stingy with their ingredients yet the sweetness were just nice! :) </span>The only let down was the Red Velvet which was a bit too sweet with the huge amount of chocolate sauce over it. :S<br />

Hello from home where I don't cook because I'm theoretically not even allowed to touch any cold water during this entire confinement month FML. I kinda miss cooking already I think maybe because I'm starting to get a bit sick of the limited stuff I can eat during confinement month. Sigh...</div>
<br />
Anyway, here are some of the cooking/baking I've done before I popped that I still want to share with you guys. :)<br />

'Fake' because I cheated. I bought this pre-packed mixture and all I needed to add were eggs and butter! Oh yeah so easy and you get some nice American cookies already! The only problem though, is that since it's pre-mixed, the sugar content is quite high so they were a little too sweet. :S<br />

During the final months of having baby Rayden in my tummy, I was constantly craving for after meal desserts. Hence, I also suddenly have this really strong baking mojo. This one though, was a spin-off from the <a href="http://baobao-no-sekai.blogspot.com/2014/06/nutella-cheesecake-bars-ftw.html">Nutella Cheesecake Bars</a> I've done earlier. All I did was I added Oreo cookies in the second layer - the cream cheese layer.<span style="color: red;"> I'm proud to say it was a hit at 3e's CNY gathering this year where she secretly kept some in the fridge before we could finish them all! :p</span><br />

Another spin-off from the same recipe here. Ran out of Nutella so let's make an Oreo Cheese Bars! Still works! Although I'm not too sure should I actually bake it or just chill it cos I think it still works if I just chill it? Lol, not entirely a good baker I am, I admit!<br />

Was still making a lot of chicken porridge for quick dinner fixes. Only difference here is I added Shiitake Mushrooms, sweet corn and carrots here for extra colours and nutrition.<br />

Honestly, Steamed Okra with Sambal is really awesome. But don't ask me for the recipe for the Sambal, it was from my MIL. :p<br />

Slowly getting the hang of cooking some perfect Quinoa now, most of the time with the rice cooker. And I really love Brussels sprout but it is one of the vegetables that Deardo is afraid of so yes, this was a home-alone meal. :)<br />

Was working from home already about a week before baby Rayden was born so I made myself some awesome lunches like this. I fried the pasta with beef marinated with cumin powder, light soya sauce and pepper, tomato, Edamame and broccoli. Seasoned with some pepper and black pepper then sprinkle some roasted sesame on top to make this really yummy pasta dish!<br />

Made another version of the pasta with Vermicelli Spaghetti, replaced the beef with pork and broccoli with asparagus for Deardo to try. Not too bad either! :)<br />

For another home alone lunch, I boiled some chicken soup with Goji berry to go with some instant noodle instead of using the seasoning packets that comes with the noodles. Added some oyster mushrooms, black fungus and broccoli for extra nutrition for the then mummy-to-be. :)<br />

Made some curry bai kuat with Kacang Botol as well, since we only have that in the fridge. Don't ask me for the curry recipe cos it was pre-packed curry paste. :p Had that with some stir-fry spinach, old cucumber soup and our favourite 10-grain rice with Chinese Sausages.<br />

This is my favourite of all my home alone lunches. Rice cooked with all ingredients dumped into the rice cooker and the smell and taste of it was so good!!! Also cooked and tasted Kale for the first time, made it an Asian one with bit of oyster sauce and light soya sauce. Tasted quite like Kailan, which I really like! Such a yummey lunch! :D<br />
<br />
Okay, that's all for now. Perhaps more cooking adventure when I'm left alone at home during my second month of maternity leave? </div>

<br />
For some odd reasons, I still feel pretty surreal to have a son right now, like I don't really feel like I'm a mum yet? I look at Rayden everyday going hey this baby boy is so cute, but never really feel like hey this cute boy is my son? Maybe the feeling just hasn't really kick in.<br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color: red;">Anyway, I had a cool first Mother's Day with my two sisters around buying me flowers and cakes, spending some time and laughter with me, who otherwise would be bored till death sitting at home. I just have some of the best siblings and relatives and I'm forever thankful for them. :)</span></div>
<br />
I've dreamed about typing this particular post and it would be a pretty long one if my son is only my son, without Deardo included. I would have named him some super cool names like some Greek, Italian, Spanish or French baby boy's name. But because our boy has a dad who is super scared of people making fun of his son's name, we ended up arguing and could never agree to a name until perhaps a week before he was born.<br />
<br />
Let me just skip all the names I love cos I just love them too much I'm worry you will steal them from me. LOL (just kidding la, I'll share with you privately if you need some ideas for cool baby boy's name, I promise)! But for Deardo, he always come up with some pretty common names like Sebastian (because of Sebastian Vettel, the F1 World Champ) and I would always say ah that's too common!<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
In the end he said he wanted the name to start with the letter R (again, it's a car freak's thing), which I quickly came up with Roderick, which I really really like since hearing the name on the final season of <i>Glee</i>, but he was just urm may~be~ Grrrrhhhhh... So frustrating!<br />

</tbody></table>
After some research, I'm just glad we finally agreed on one name and that's Rayden. It's like an extended name to names like Aiden, Jayden or Hayden. Not only does the name start with the letter R (which makes papa very happy), the 'Ray' in the name also rhyme with Rayden's Chinese's name. And to me, the word 'Ray' means something bright, like ray of light and of course best of all, it's quite a new and uncommon name that I can't even find a meaning for the name online, so I can't complain much anymore or we will NEVER get this done.<br />
<br />
So here we have, Rayden Wong, our cute little fellar's name!<br />
<br />
I'm not too sure if we will have a second one in the future, but I do hope if we do, I can have my cool names back. I even have a whole list of cool and lovely girls' names in my mind already cos I find girls' names more interesting actually! :pUnknownnoreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7946911786140885989.post-77747123070881726582015-05-08T21:19:00.000+08:002015-05-12T19:51:09.446+08:00I've Popped... In the Most Unglam Way Possible<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
So yes, while you are still reading my scheduled posts on my blog, I've actually popped and it happened in one of the most dramatic ways possible, like you know, women in TVB dramas giving birth. </div>
<br />
To begin the story, we have to go back to 23rd April where we visited our doctor for our check-up. She said I was only about 1cm dilated so she did something 'down there' to sort of try to open up my cervix a little. Because I was having pregnancy high BP, her suggestion was to have me check-into the hospital on 28th (Tuesday) and induce me so latest I'll deliver would be on 29th (Wednesday), instead of my earlier due date, which was supposed to be 8th May.<br />
<br />
So Deardo and I started doing some last minute preparations to welcome our little bundle of joy. We also went out quite a lot, knowing that I'll be confined for a month after delivering the baby.<br />
<br />
On Saturday (25th April) morning, instead of some brownish blood discharge (which was supposed to be normal after what the doctor has done the other day), I noticed there were fresh blood on my panty liner, together with some transparent-looking stuff. I've heard about this being 'the show' so I quickly Google it up and phew~ It says normally for first-time mum, the mucus plug coming out means you might have to wait a week or up to a month to deliver! So I was like okay baby isn't coming, just yet.<br />
<br />
That evening we made a spontaneous decision to go down to Sungei Wang, a place we know we might not want to bring a baby to when he is out. We were going to choose a new <i>G-Shock</i> for Deardo since his birthday falls in May. But before that, we stopped by one of our favourite restaurants, <i><a href="http://baobao-no-sekai.blogspot.com/2014/12/yummy-authentic-hk-style-cafe-food-hong.html">Hong Kong's Food Culture</a></i> for some yummy Fried Beef Noodles.<br />

While I was eating, I constantly feel discharge coming out of me. I still thought it was normal discharge until we finished and started walking towards Sungei Wang. By then I could feel my thighs were rubbing each other with water... I told Deardo maybe my water bag has broken??? He was like hai mai gah??? <span style="color: red;">To be safe, I went to the ladies and once I take off my underwear, water just flow freely down my legs... OMG MY WATER BAG REALLY DID BREAK!!!</span><br />

Freaked out, we quickly, but also slowly (hahaha I don't know if you understand this lol) made our way back to the car (yeap, no <i>G-Shock</i> today my dear husband) where the only thing we can use for me to sit on was a recycle bag. We drove all the way home, took an important shower, washed my hair and checked into the hospital at about 11pm.<br />

First check, I was only about 3cm dilated so we knew it would be next day that we will meet our baby boy. We refused to take Epidural because Deardo has heard story from colleague that it has side effect - backache. But being the useless self, by 2am ish the pain was too unbearable I begged Deardo to just let me take the Epidural. Gosh those nurses could hear me screaming from outside the room okay!<br />

So after the Epidural I felt much better but the entire night (or morning) we didn't get to sleep much since the midwives and nurses kept coming in to check on me from time-to-time. At least I wasn't feeling much of the contraction pain anymore...<br />
<br />
Fast forward to 8 something in the morning where I started pushing (or should I say we since Deardo was sort of involved in the whole process?), and by 9.20am our baby boy finally came into our world! But honestly, because of the numbness at my lower body I didn't even realise our baby is already here so when they put him on my tummy and told me hey baby is here I went huh? Oh! There he is! Later when they handed him over and asked me to kiss baby, I was also like huh? Oh ok, then kissed him on his forehead... LOL! I think I was just too tired and numb to react to it. So unlike a lot of you new mums out there, I didn't really shed any tear. Deardo instead was in tears haha...<br />

First of all, it's actually quite a clean and air-conditioned small restaurant, when I thought it must have been a lousy and old kopitiam. The most impressive part though, must be the spread of Yong Tofu they offer. Apart from the usual types of Yong Tofu, they also have stuffed Kacang Botol, stuffed long beans, etc just to name a few. They also made their own fish balls, which is a very huge plus point for me! :)<br />

You can have your Yong Tofu with noodles of any kind (from Wanton Mee to Hakka Mee), or Chee Cheongs Fun with dried shrimp or curry. Plus there are pig stomach, dumplings etc to order as sides too. You just need to pick your Yong Tufu, make your other orders and sit down and wait for your food to arrive!<br />

I don't know exactly how much it cost us per item since they didn't bother giving us a bill anyway. But the Yong Tofu (at least about 12 pieces), 3 bowls of Chee Cheong Fun and three drinks (pregnant woman was feeling hot) costs us about RM24, which is still quite reasonable for a lunch for two in KL city. Really wouldn't mind going back again! :)<br />

I have always been a die-heart <i>Yoshinoya</i> fan after I first tried their rice bowl many many years ago when they first existed in KL in Mid Valley and KLCC's food court. Unfortunately they closed down so it became a must for me to go have their famous rice bowl every time I travel to Singapore or Taiwan. In Taiwan especially, they are still one of the very famous fast food-style Japanese rice bowl restaurants.</div>
So imagine the excitement when I found out they have made a comeback to Malaysia at Mid Valley!<br />

Deardo brought me there just days after they opened to have dinner! This time around, they are under one same roof with another Udon brand, which makes the whole place named <i>Yoshinoya Hanamaru </i>(<i>Hanamaru</i> for the Udon brand).<br />

It looks like a mini Japanese food court, where you can order either from the Udon or the rice bowl counters (self-service) then there is also a counter for drinks where you can purchase your drinks from. I'm quite glad there seems to be quite a huge crowd = I won't see it closing down anytime soon! Yay! :D<br />
Deardo and I went separate ways since I couldn't care much about whatever diet plan and went for the rice while he went for the Udon...<br />

<span style="color: red;">Beef is <i>Yoshinoya</i>'s signature ingredients so I went for the beef and vegetable combo. It was still the same taste that I used to know - light, hearty, nice and chewy thin beef slices. The only difference here is the vegetables which have evolved from zucchini to cabbage and broccoli. Can't really blame them, zucchini are not cheap in Malaysia. </span>The Chicken Karage that comes with the sides are pretty good too, hot and crunchy still, although not the best Karage I've tried.<br />

The Curry Udon comes with springy Udon noodles with thick curry gravy with not only potato and carrot cubes, but also pieces of chicken, <span style="color: red;">At RM10, that's quite a steal if compared to other existing Udon places in town.</span> We also tried some Tempura but I think they were really quite a disappointment.<br />

But then I thought since there were some real hard work from Karen, and from Deardo and myself done for this video shoot, plus a great message the video has, I think it's only fair to share. :)<br />
<br />
So what happened was Karen told me about this project she is assisting to do. The idea isn't new at all, I've seen some other brands doing the same type of videos but the theme this time around is 'Embrace your Imperfection'. She was having problem looking for a loving couple who can speak good English to be featured in the video and of course I was all willing to help but it took some effort to persuade Deardo to do the shoot, which I think he didn't regret doing it at all at the end of the day.<br />
<br />
Deardo did his interview a day before me without me at the shoot of course. Here are some snapshots Karen sent to me during his interview...<br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
So I was asked a few questions about myself and mostly the insecurities I have about myself. If you work or have worked in video production like me, you'll know the full interview was longer and then was very much edited for the final product. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
If you know me well, my biggest worries are: 1) to get back on the wheels so that I can drive my future son around safely and 2) what will happen to me, our lives and my family's lives when I decide to become a SAHM one day and these are serious problems! I was also asked what do I think are my weaknesses e.g. too straight forward, etc but those were cut out.</div>

<span style="color: red;">Then they showed me Deardo's interview which you can see in the video too. But there were things that he said earlier too which didn't make it to the final cut, like he actually loves the fact that I'm straight forward and confident cos he doesn't like girls who are timid and just hide behind him. That really made me tear up already because for all you know, we know each other too well and for all you know. my husband loves me for the qualities that some may find annoying. :) Of course, he knows all the worries I have and said things like 'let's walk the journey together' and 'even if one day he isn't around my son will be with me'... (I scolded him for saying such nonsense) He was already tearing up in the video, so what do you expect from me? More tears of course!!! </span><br />

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: yellow;">I was actually more surprised with the fact that Deardo can be so open in telling the entire world how much he loves me and how he will 'walk the journey' with me. :)</span></td></tr>
</tbody></table>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: red;">Then he made a surprise appearance (seriously I didn't know he was coming), and I was in more tears! Terrible lar this pregnancy hormone I tell you... :S</span></span></div>

<span style="text-align: left;"><br /></span></div>

<br />
Like you can see at the end of the video, I mentioned I always know Deardo will be there for me telling me not to worry but I still worry.<br />
<br />
And like the message that the video was trying to convey, no one is perfect and I always know that. As much as you see me being most of the time a cheerful and tough woman, there are worries and weaknesses in me that I always worry about. I'm eager though, to take on the challenges lying ahead of me. First thing on my list is of course to drive. I swear this is the first thing I want to accomplish cos there isn't any ways out of this since I need to drive my boy to school, to tuition, activities, classes or even emergencies. So wish me luck guys! :)<br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">Both Deardo and I are very thankful of Karen who wanted us to be in this project so badly because she knows the outcome of the video will make us realise how much we love and appreciate each other and probably also convey a message to my family back home too. So XOXO Karen! :D</span><br />

That row of shoplot at Bukit Desa is surprisingly becoming pretty happening lately with more F&B outlets opening. We've been there previously for <a href="http://baobao-no-sekai.blogspot.com/2010/03/highly-recommended-sanuki-udon-my-3rd.html"><i>Sanuki Udon</i></a> and <i><a href="http://baobao-no-sekai.blogspot.com/2014/06/time-for-dessert-encore-patisserie-cafe.html">Encore Patisserie</a>.</i> Today we are going to explore a new bakery cafe - <i>Red Kettle</i>. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
When we visited <i>Red Kettle</i>, they were only 22-day-old but it is quite obvious that they have already become quite a hit, I'm assuming most of them are from the neighourhood, some might be curious customers like us, who read about them from a food blog earlier.<br />

Half of the bakery cafe is their bakery kitchen which makes the entire place smells so good with the fragrance of freshly baked breads. They sell their breads of course, together with some muffins and cookies. But we were there for their hot food, of course.<br />

<span style="color: red;">The Angel Hair in Broth is quite an interesting dish - it looks like a Western version of Ramen yet without a big bowl of soup. It's very light and has a very nice fragrance from the roasted sesame while the thin slices of roasted pork shoulder and soy lava egg made the dish pretty delicious! I would have preferred it with a little greens though.</span> I find the Sausage and Mash and Signature Pork Chop just decent but seriously, those flavourful homemade gravy and fluffy mashed potatoes saved the day! Very well done I must say! Just beware that a guy like Deardo doesn't think the portion is big enough.<br />

<span style="color: red;">I was quite disappointed with the fact that they don't serve coffee (they only have Vietnamese drip and cold brew coffee), leaving us with no choice but to order some cold syrup-based drinks (boo~). I hope it is only temporary cos I really think coffee are very important in cafe like this. </span><br />

Anyway, with a 10% service charge, the bill came up to RM67.10 (this was before April 1st), which is quite reasonable. Honest opinion from me? Worth a try, especially the food! But I really do hope coffee will be included in their menu soon.<br />

Probably the very last post on my pregnancy fashion since I'm gonna pop VERY SOON! </div>
<br />
<span style="color: red;">Being preggers has pretty much forced me to change my style from tight, small cutting and very feminine dresses to some mixture of oversized, comfy and 'manly' cool clothes. It's all good for a change I must say and I really had a lot of fun picking out clothes and thinking of how to style them with accessories or adding layers to them. :)</span><br />
<br />
Anyway, let's get the ball rolling, shall we?<br />

<span style="color: red;">Here's the best example of what I normally won't wear - an oversized jersey which doesn't look so oversized on this pregnant woman anymore, LOL! Anyway, love the cute pineapple (wore this to 3e's CNY party so 'Ong Lai' for the prosperity purpose) and love how cool it makes me look! Yeap, definitely diggin' the SWAG yo! </span><br />

<span style="color: red;">Because I bought a bigger size of the basic pencil dress, the upper part is really pretty low (can see mummy-to-be's cleavage man) so I had to layer it with something else, which is something I don't normally do. But I'm enjoying it cos it's like playing with colours and creativity! *wink~*</span><br />
<span style="color: red;">And I always love the sleeves of this black top, so edgy and 'futuristic'! Damn cool right? </span><br />

<span style="color: red;">That's all, bidding goodbye to styling the bump in true style, did I? At least I hope I did not make myself too aunty-ish over this past few months! :D I actually really enjoyed the entire journey of styling myself and the bump on me, almost like how Deardo actually enjoyed taking these ootd photos for me more than before I was pregnant. He said he is going to miss me with the bump so he is basically capturing a lot of photos of me now for memory's sake. LOL.</span><br />

I'm sure by now I'm considered the very outdated one to have tried the latest and most talked-about Dim Sum brand to arrive in Malaysia all the way from Hong Kong - the famed Michelin Stared <i>Tim Ho Wan</i>.</div>

So, I've heard of good and bad reviews where I think the bad reviews are from people who have too high an expectation on them. I mean, you can't blame them, Dim Sums from Hong Kong? Sure nice one right? And with a restaurant that has a Michelin Star, you just couldn't help but to expect the best!<br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">Personally, I find certain dishes in their menu like super duperly awesomely delicious but there are also some that were total letdown. </span>So to makes things easier, here are my list of 'must eat' at Tim Ho Wan (not in particular orders):<br />

<span style="color: red;">The Glutinous Rice In Lotus Leaf doesn't look very promising when you first open it up, but once you reach the fillings where the hot gravy from the pork mixture oozes out and mixes with the rice... Oh man, that awesome flavour just makes you keep digging for more of it! Big big love for this one!</span><br />

The Baked Bun with BBQ Pork is <i>Tim Ho Wan</i>'s signature dish so really, even if I say I hate it you should still give it a try. LOL! In fact, I don't hate it at all! While the filling isn't that impressive, the unique skin does make a lot of difference here - Crunchy and a little sweet on the outside, soft and fluffy on the inside. Very nice, indeed!<br />

<span style="color: red;">Then the Pan Fried Carrot Cake, which is to me, one of its kind. The very nice texture from real radish (you can actually see the strips of radish if you cut it) makes it not so artificial while the ham in it added a chewy texture to the dish too. Very yummy!</span><br />

<span style="color: red;">Steamed Rice with Chicken, Sausage & Mushroom is perhaps a very common dish you can find anywhere else in town but to me, this one here wins big because of the uber tender chicken and sausages and the gravy that they pour into it before serving you at the table.

<span style="color: red;">At first glance, the Pork Ribs with Black Bean Sauce looks really just the ordinary pork ribs you can find in any other Dim Sum places but once you grab a bite of the pork ribs you'll know it's crazily different! I have no idea what they did to make those ribs so tender it kinda melt in your mouth and it really reminds me of the one </span><a href="http://baobao-no-sekai.blogspot.com/2009/08/around-3-countries-in-5-days-part-1.html">I had in Hong Kong</a> <span style="color: red;">years ago! Plus, that gravy OMG so yummey FIL couldn't stop dipping the Fried Carrot Cake into it to eat! That was the only dish we ordered another one so you know, this is really in the top of our favourite list yo!</span><br />

Save your stomach for some awesome dessert as you dig into the refreshing Mango Sago Pamelo! Thick Mango gravy with sago, pamelo of small bits of mango sounds good to you? Oh yea it sounds and tastes good to me! Sweet but not too sweet and just the right dessert to finish up your meal! Love it!!!<br />
<br />
And here are the other dishes we tried which I find them either not too bad, mediocre or worse.<br />

We had both the Char Siew and Shrimps Chee Cheong Fun, which I don't think are the best I've had.<br />

The Prawn Dumplings (Har Gao) too, despite having very fresh prawns, failed in terms of the very important Har Gao skin.<br />

Our breakfast that day cost us slightly over RM200 (that was before GST and without the Steamed Rice), which I think wasn't too bad, it'll probably cost the same in several other Dim Sum places in KL. We went back twice after that on weekday nights and there were no queue so if you don't find eating Dim Sum as dinner weird (which we obviously don't), it's better to go at night to skip the queue.<br />
<br />
Here's the latest menu with their prices which is quite confusing cos it's GST included but it will appear to be different in your bill with the GST being calculated later on a total that includes the 10% service charge, the price for each item become totally different. So let's just say the prices here are just for your rough reference.<br />

<span style="color: red;">So, what's my verdict? I agree food are a little overpriced, but really not too much difference also compared to other Dim Sum places I know. So I won't really fuss about that. Food wise, you just need to know what to order cos there are some really good ones but there are also some that I can't even say they are good, especially at a Michelin Star level. I do hope they expand their menu though - with that one-pager menu and after cutting down the non-favourites, we are often left with only a few choices to order. Why can't they bring in the beef brisket/stomach??? I miss that at Hong Kong Dim Sum in Hong Kong and Perth the most! Anyway, we have gone back twice since the first visit, so I guess that explains we kinda like the food there! :)</span><br />

Not that we haven't gone past this shop before, but Taiping food brought over to be sold in KL? You can't blame me for having some doubts in them, really. But finally we gave it a try on a night we wanted some light dinner (which didn't exactly end up to me that 'light') and we are so in love that we have gone back too many times after that!</div>

Anyway, just a little introduction, <i>Thiam Kee</i> is indeed a real brand in Taiping, one of the more famous stalls at Taiping Larut Matang's Hawker Centre selling nothing but Chicken Hor Fun. I heard this shop here in Taipan is operated by the children of the boss but they have of course expanded their menu to many more stuff, from Taiping's famous Teowchew Fried Kuey Teow till dishes like Nasi Lemak and Roti Bakar. It sounds like a full-fledge commercialised Kopitiam.<br />

The Chicken Hor Fun comes in two styles - with chicken strips or with chicken thigh. I found them equally satisfying in terms of taste. <span style="color: red;">Now here's the thing, both Deardo and I really are crazy over their Hor Fun soup here because it tastes EXACTLY the same as the ones you can find in many restaurants/stalls in Taiping. That distinctive taste that you can only find in a Chicken Hor Fun in Taiping, you'll get it here in Taipan, no kidding! The taste of the soup and every single ingredients, including that Sambal Belacan that is OMG so yummy and it makes us feel so at home!!! Deardo who normally doesn't put any chili in his food actually wants that Sambal Belacan every time he goes there! Ahhhh... So yummey~!!!</span><br />

</div>
And then we had the Teochew Fried Kuey Teow, a dish that we have not found anywhere else outside Taiping until we came to this restaurant here. Yup, if you are from Taiping, you'll know that this is a different Fried Kuey Teow - with a little more liquid, the dish's main ingredients are fish balls, fish cakes and Char Siew and that is something you don't find in Fried Kuey Teow anywhere else. <span style="color: red;">We were really skeptical at first but man that dish turned up to be at least 85% the same as the ones in Taiping! Only thing that makes a difference I think would be the absence of the Char Siew since Thiam Kee here decided to go pork-free. But the flavour, the gravy and everything else tasted just perfect!</span><br />

It normally cost us less than RM25 for a meal of three dishes (yup two isn't enough for us cos we couldn't decide which one to have) with a drink and that's actually pretty affordable too! <span style="color: red;">Well, you know what, we couldn't care much about the pricing anyway cos every time we finish a meal there we would be talking about it non-stop in the car, about how good the meal was, how it really reminds us of our hometown. Seriously, it just feels like we are drunk with the food there!</span><br />
<span style="color: red;">If you are a Taiping Lang in KL this is a place you must go and if you are not from Taiping but isn't afraid of trying out new flavours, here's my honest recommendation! Ahhhh... Damn I need to go back again for another Chicken Hor Fun fix soon!</span><br />

So we go past this restaurant almost everyday on the way home after work but never stepped foot into it until recently we decided to give it a go.</div>

The restaurant prides themselves with their homemade fish balls and fish cakes, plus their signature Teochew Mee Pok, which looks to us just like your usual Hakka Mee. Don't ask me, I've never heard of Teochew Mee Pok before this despite the fact that I'm a Teochew. :p They also serve homemade Tong Sui, Soya Milk and Tofu Fa.<br />

The place looks tidy and clean although you can see all workers, including kitchen staff are sadly, foreigners. Anyway, we went ahead to order our dinner...<br />

The Mee Pok, which doesn't come with too big a portion, consists of noodles that really resembles Hakka Mee, minced pork, generous amount of pork lard and a side bowl of fish cakes and vege in soup.<span style="color: red;"> It was truly yummy with the homemade fish cakes tastes really different compared to those commercialised ones. Shirlexia approves! Deardo had to order another one for himself after listening to my good reviews! Haha! </span></div>

Another side dish we tried was the Fu Chuk Skin Roll which resembles a 'Zha Leong' (Yau Tiu wrapped in a Chee Cheong Fun, a common dish you find in a Hong Kong Dim Sum restaurant) only this one comes with the Fu Chok Skin Roll which tastes really awesome. I don't particularly like the sweet and spicy sauce that comes with it though.<br />
Now I only wish I can persuade Deardo enough to try the Teochew Fried Porridge with me one day! :P<br />

As we are nearing to the date of seeing you in real person, mummy and papa have been seeing the doctor on a weekly basis and I must say I'm just so proud of you baby, for staying so strong, healthy and just the right size so far. :) Mummy is the one who is having a little problem with the blood pressure but don't worry, it is still pretty much under controlled. Doctor said we might be seeing you earlier than the given due date so you know what? I'd say yay, bring it on! I will be seeing my little baby boy soon!!! ;D<br />

Your somersaults, kicks and punches can sometimes be so painful but they never failed to make me laugh or smile, cos these are just signs that you are really strong and healthy, and that you are just too cute! There was this one time I went to the toilet to poo but you kept tickling me at the bottom and then I lost focus and no poop came out... LOL!

More stuff are done in preparations to welcome you, my royal highness! Baby cot, bed sheet, blanket, pampers, wash up your clothes, etc. Your baby cot looks lovely and papa had some wonderful time putting it up and we can't wait to see you sleeping in it soundly at the corner of our room, SOON! Got most of your stuff before GST strikes but there are just some leftover that I'm eager to get them real soon!<br />

In preparation for the confinement month, mummy has been spending more time out of the house recently with not only your papa, but also mummy's friends. It just feels right to be out as much as possible before being confined at home, especially when I always feel better and energised when I'm out than when I just sit at home! :)<br />

Physically and mentally, mummy is feeling good, although the feeling of exhaustion, breathlessness, swelling legs and face and the insecurities on the changes to my body are still bothering me.

Many said I look like a surprise pregnant lady (meaning if you see me on my back you won't realise I'm pregger) and that always make my days! Haha! </div>

As for papa... He is recently busy with his car since he wanted to modify his car as much as possible before GST. I let him do whatever he wants because I feel like as I grow bigger and heavier, your papa's love for me and you have also grown 'bigger and heavier'. Hehe... He would help whenever I needed him to, be it just standing up or climbing up somewhere to take some stuff at home. Not only that, he has been answering to my ridiculous requests before giving birth e.g. having hi-tea at a 5-star hotel! He has been very encouraging too, assuring me everything will be alright whenever I'm worry about anything. You must remember most of the time I'm the positive one but now he just turned the table around! :)<br />

<span style="color: red;">What I really like about your papa is that although in many many ways he is a typical Chinese husband (and dad too, probably, you know being bossy and all), there are still many many ways that he acts like a non-Chinese guy, especially the way he deals with me, almost like I'm the whole world to him and I'm just really grateful to have found him *tear tear~*. He is a great husband and I'm pretty sure he will be a wonderful dad to you too! :)</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">Well, I'm not sure if this will be the last letter to you before I pop and see you in real person but regardless, I want you to know, papa and mummy can't wait to see you and we will love you like nobody's business okay! </span><br />
<br />
Till then, see you soon!<br />
<br />
Lots of love,<br />
